OpenStack Icehouse : Use Virtual Storage(GlusterFS)2014/06/26 |
|
It's possible to use the Virtual Storage provided by Cinder
if an Instance needs more disks.
Configure Virtual storage with GlusterFS backend on here.

GlusterFS server is required to be running on your LAN.
This example uses a replication volume "vol_replica" provided by "gfs01" and "gfs02".

| [2] | Configure Storage Node. |
|
# install from EPEL
[root@storage ~]#
yum --enablerepo=epel -y install glusterfs glusterfs-fuse
[root@storage ~]#
vi /etc/cinder/cinder.conf # add follows in the [DEFAULT] section
volume_driver=cinder.volume.drivers.glusterfs.GlusterfsDriver
glusterfs_shares_config=/etc/cinder/glusterfs_shares glusterfs_mount_point_base=/var/lib/cinder/mnt
[root@storage ~]#
vi /etc/cinder/glusterfs_shares # create new : specify GlusterFS volumes gfs01.srv.world:/vol_replica
[root@storage ~]#
[root@storage ~]# chmod 640 /etc/cinder/glusterfs_shares [root@storage ~]# chgrp cinder /etc/cinder/glusterfs_shares [root@storage ~]# mkdir /var/lib/cinder/mnt [root@storage ~]# chown cinder. /var/lib/cinder/mnt /etc/rc.d/init.d/openstack-cinder-volume restart Stopping openstack-cinder-volume: [ OK ] Starting openstack-cinder-volume: [ OK ] |
| [3] | Configure Compute Node to mount GlusterFS volume. |
|
# install from EPEL
[root@node01 ~]#
yum --enablerepo=epel -y install glusterfs glusterfs-fuse
[root@node01 ~]#
vi /etc/nova/nova.conf # add follows in the [DEFAULT] section volume_drivers="glusterfs=nova.virt.libvirt.volume.LibvirtGlusterfsVolumeDriver" /etc/rc.d/init.d/openstack-nova-compute restart Stopping openstack-nova-compute: [ OK ] Starting openstack-nova-compute: [ OK ] |
| [4] | For example, create a virtual disk "disk01" with 10GB. It's OK to work on any node. (This example is on Control Node) |

| [5] | Attach the virtual disk to an Instance. For the exmaple below, the disk is connected as "/dev/vdb". It's possible to use it as a storage to create a file system on it. |
